Is it worth it TO ME? That depends on whether or not I can recoup that upfront cost. That is going to be what makes it worth it to me.

If you are doing it for a hobby, and enjoy breeding and keeping snakes anyway, then go for it. Consider what you make back from breeding to be a nice bonus. But if you are buying a morph for the purpose of making money, then you are likely to be disappointed. Unless of course you are able to get in at or near the ground floor of a significant new morph of a popular species.
Recouping the cost of the animal might not be bad. But you have to add on the cost of feeding, vet bills, equipment (incubator, probes, etc). That does not even account for your time........
Buy the snake 'cause you love the snake. That way if you don't make a dime off of breeding, its no loss.
That is my $.02
